We also assessed the relationships between bladder management methods, symptomatic urinary tract infection (SUTI), and QOL. Two years after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, a cross\u2010sectional face\u2010to\u2010face survey was conducted on 180 patients with SCI. A self\u2010administered questionnaire and the WHOQOL\u2010BREF assessment were used to assess injury\u2010related information, bladder management methods, and SUTI. Statistical analysis was performed using the Chi\u2010square test and analysis of variance. A <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> value &lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant. This study found that a male\u2010to\u2010female ratio of approximately 1.2:1, including 98 (54.4%) male patients and 82 (45.6%) female patients. Thoracic\u2010level injuries were seen in 82 patients (45.56%), 60 (33.33%) patients had lumbar\u2010level injuries, 18 (8.33%) patients had thoracolumbar\u2010level injuries, and a small number of patients had cervical\u2010 or sacral\u2010level injuries. Sixty\u2010two patients (34.44%) demonstrated normal voiding, 65 (36.11%) required manually assisted voiding, 29 (16.11%) required catheterization, and 24 (13.33%) used aurine\u2010collecting apparatus. The prevalence of SUTI was 43.89%. Patients who emptied their bladder via manually assisted voiding, catheterization, or with the use of a urine\u2010collecting apparatus demonstrated higher rates of SUTI compared with patients who voided normally (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05); the patients who required catheterization had higher rates of SUTI compared with patients who required manually assisted voiding (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). When manually assisted voiding and catheterization were compared with the use a urine\u2010collecting apparatus, no statistically significant differences were observed in terms of the risk of developing SUTI. The patients in this study demonstrated low scores on the WHOQOL\u2010BREF physical domain (11.61\u2009\u00b1\u20093.80), psychological domain (10.11\u2009\u00b1\u20093.63), social domain (11.46\u2009\u00b1\u20092.84), and environmental domain (11.86\u2009\u00b1\u20092.51). The patients who reported normal voiding also demonstrated the best QOL in terms of physical, psychological, and social component scores (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). In conclusion, the percentage of women in this study is higher than that reported in other studies on traumatic causes of SCI. Patients who suffered SCI following the Wenchuan earthquake demonstrate poor bladder management status and are unable to take advantage of urodynamic testing that is used to monitor the functional state of the bladder. This study's findings indicate that bladder management methods influence the rate of SUTI and the QOL of patients with SCI. Caring for SCI patients following a disaster requires comprehensive long\u2010term planning. Bladder management of patients with SCI is essential for improving the QOL of these patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.kjms.2012.04.028","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,25]],"date-time":"2012-07-25T19:18:58Z","timestamp":1343243938000},"page":"613-618","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Bladder management of patients with spinal cord injuries sustained in the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"De\u2010Yi","family":"Luo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ming\u2010Fu","family":"Ding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cheng\u2010Qi","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Han\u2010Chao","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yi","family":"Dai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yang","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zeng\u2010Chun","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shou\u2010Juan","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jin\u2010Long","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hao","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hong","family":"Shen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,25]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"908","DOI":"10.1213\/ANE.0b013e3181cbc62c","article-title":"The dragon strikes: lessons from the Wenchuan earthquake","volume":"110","author":"Chen G.","year":"2010","journal-title":"Anesth Analg"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0924-8579(00)00352-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0003-9993(98)90240-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","first-page":"3512","volume-title":"Principles and practice of infectious diseases","author":"Darouiche R.O.","year":"2005"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","volume-title":"International Medical Society of Paraplegia \u2010 ASIA\/IMSOP","author":"International Standards for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury","year":"1992"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ageing\/afg102"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0033291798006667"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"459","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/27.3.459","article-title":"Fatal and hospitalised injuries resulting from the 1994 Northridge earthquake","volume":"27","author":"Peak\u2010Asa C.","year":"1998","journal-title":"Int J Epidemiol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","volume-title":"Seismic considerations: health care facilities","author":"Building Seismic Safety Council","year":"1990"},{"issue":"4","key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"367","DOI":"10.1080\/10790268.2007.11753953","article-title":"Spinal cord injuries as a result of earthquakes: lessons from Iran and Pakistan","volume":"30","author":"Priebe M.M.","year":"2007","journal-title":"J Spinal Cord Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","unstructured":"Spinal Injuries Ireland.
